Default Cam

so ive finally decided I want to go ahead and get a cam. I've just ordered the kooks lt's. I just want to know what your recommendations are for a daily driver, as i enjoy driving the car hard and find myself at the track often. Basically, Im looking for a medium/mild cam that can be dependable for daily driving while putting out good hp/tq gains. Thanks!

Current Mods:
Halltech CAI
Corsa Sports
MAF rotated
160 T-stat

I am currently running a 224/228 .58? 114 cam from 21st Century Muscle cars. It has a little lope (low idle rpm in an automatic car) and no problems for a daily driver (have 6000 miles on it). With the same mods you have listed, with Kooks and hi-flows, the cam alone (all other mods already on) added 35rwhp and 25 ft lbs in a very nice flat curve.

There are lots of choices though.
